MAGA would rather help a rapist become a father than a family seeking to use IVF.

This is where we are. Republicans desperately trying to re-victimize victims to save fetuses, while starving children. #KristiNoem #abortion

👀 More GOP Rep. Gonzales: "Look, Matt Gaetz, he paid minors to have sex with him at drug parties, Bob Good endorsed my opponent, a known neo-Nazi. These people used to walk around with white hoods at night, now they are walking around with white hoods in the daytime”

GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales, umm, not mincing words on CNN as he predicts Mike Johnson will survive motion to vacate

“I serve with some real scumbags”

Yeah, I'm mostly a Mac kinda guy, but I do use Windows. My raging hatred of intrusive advertising has made me seek out and destroy the ads and nags increasingly making their way into software - particularly something as fundamental an operating system. Microsoft is increasingly dumping ads into Windows, so I sought ways to shut them down. To Microsoft's credit, you can turn most of them off. Here's how.

LMAO at all the coverage and commentary talking about Mike Johnson’s political “bravery.”

Thinking the coverage should be more tilted towards how foolishly the MAGAt idiots let MTG carry them this far down the rabbit hole.

But every story needs a villian. Just wish we had smarter ones and smarter coverage of them.

Thank you, JOE.

So @GottaLaff just coined #DefendantSleepyFlopSweatMcBrainSpurs for #TFG and I think we all have a civic duty to make that hashtag trend. I humbly ask you to boost this message and use that hashtag as often as possible.

@GottaLaff you had me at #DefendantSleepyFlopSweatMcBrainSpurs

@KathyLK I think there are lots of answers to that question. One big answer is that, early on, men seem to have grabbed power in many of the world's religious traditions and to have then created religious teachings that justify their dominance by pointing to "God."

Finding good advice in the #Bible is like finding a piece of your favorite candy inside a shit sandwich.

Be very careful to wash off all traces of the shit before eating the candy.

Here’s a tip:

As lawyers, we don’t take out lines of credit to pay ourselves our own “legal fees”, and then have a client reimburse us for our own “legal fees” as the client at the same time criminally falsifies business records to hide that they were not, in fact, “legal fees.”

Man, the oil industry is really working hard to use their police and governments to crush any dissent https://social.coop/@afewbugs/112308777582728316

I’d be willing to accept a sentence for Trump of having to spend 8 hours each day being read mean tweets about him on public television for the rest of his life. He can go and do whatever he wants. But 8 hours a day until he dies he has to be berated publicly.

OMG am choking, am dying, am MOOING like a virtual cow. Oh My Actual Gosh, Devin Nunes, I can't believe

Giuliani sending subpoena to Trump for missing legal fees worth about $2 million

Normally Trump could try to hide the evidence. Now there is an adult in charge, Barbara Jones will monitor what shenanigans Trumpo tries to get into this time...

Cooley's Kathleen Hartnett explains that a brief she filed in Trump v. U.S. on behalf of retired military officials argues that Trump's presidential immunity claims, if successful, "would ... possibly increase the risk of people not disobeying an unlawful order." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sI7pV7wPb74
